Where all the Pregnants At?

[elebishi]

I enjoyed the "still pregnant" check-in last week. Since then a bunch have left us in the dust, so let's commiserate here.  I'm fairly certain there's only like 4 of us left, but oh well.  I'm no good with organized questions, so...

How far along?

Is there an end date in sight? (c-section, induction, etc)

How are you feeling? Rants/raves, etc

What TV show are you most looking forward to starting up again this fall?

[elebishi]

How far along? 39+4

Is there an end date in sight? (c-section, induction, etc) Not yet. Just hoping it's semi-soon.

How are you feeling? Rants/raves, etc. I woke up with a killer headache this morning and just feeling like total crap. Hoping some caffeine will do the trick. Otherwise, still swollen and short of breath, but hanging in there.

What TV show are you most looking forward to starting up again this fall? Probably Blacklist.

How far along? 40+1

Is there an end date in sight? (c-section, induction, etc) There is an end in sight! If baby girl does not decide to come in the next week, then I will be induced at 41 weeks. I'm hoping if we get to that point that they let me schedule for exactly 41 which would be next Monday.

How are you feeling? Rants/raves, etc Overall I've been feeling good, but the past few days things have started to get rough. My sleep is terrible. I wake up to pee a million times and then I'm up for the day around 4:00am. Baby feels like she's giant and her movements are painful at this point. I also have had lovely nausea and what seems like hot flashes today. I'm hoping feeling gross is a sign of labor about to start.

What TV show are you most looking forward to starting up again this fall? I don't tend to watch shows while they're on since we don't have cable (I binge everything on Netflix), but I do really like The Walking Dead. We'll probably get Sling again for while that's on so I can watch and then cancel again when it's done.

Is there an end date in sight? (c-section, induction, etc) not really...gonna ask about a membrane sweep at my MW appointment tomorrow. But I have a feeling that I'm just gonna have to wait this little girl out.

How are you feeling? Emotionally I'm trying to remember to stay calm and centered. Physically it's day to day. Yesterday I wanted to die, today I feel like I might just tackle that to do list...

What TV show are you most looking forward to starting up again this fall? Brooklyn 99 this fall. Next Spring I can't wait for American Gods, Outlander and GOT....

How far along? 38 + 3 today

Is there an end date in sight? (c-section, induction, etc) Nope, and despite GD dx, I am still measuring 1-2 weeks behind (HOW? Imma huge cowwwwwww) I sincerely doubt my doc will bother inducing unless I go 41 weeks or something.

How are you feeling? Rants/raves, etc I am ok, just wishing sleep wasn't an every other night kind of deal right now. Not really a rant or rave, but kinda both: last night I was showing SO my belly, and I have this small pouch of fat at the lowest area before it turns into pelvic area. SO was weirdly fascinated and kept like... flicking it with his fingers. He said it was so interesting because the rest of my belly is so hard and solid. I think he was just after a reaction... which he got, in the form of fire dragon eyes wide about to breathe a hail of pissed off preggly rage. He snatched his hand back and just laughed that slightly panicked belly laugh. I admit now, it was kinda funny. But that little fat pad is nothing new! I had it before pregnancy with DD1, even!

What TV show are you most looking forward to starting up again this fall? Fall, psht. A bunch of shows are putting new seasons up on netflix right now and I have been waiting! Criminal Minds for sure, My Little Pony for DD, and if/when Blacklist gets season 3 up there, Imma be really excited. Whatsherface can't act her way out of a peper bag, but I just adore James Spader.

Is there an end date in sight? (c-section, induction, etc) yep! If baby come in the next week, then I will be induced at 41 weeks. My OB scheduled it for a week from tomorrow at 6am.

How are you feeling? Rants/raves, etc
Pregnant. Contractions are starting to hurt a bit and heartburn has lessened. Hoping this means I'm no more than a few days out.

What TV show are you most looking forward to starting up again this fall?
GoT and House of Cards. Although, I think those are both in 2017. Also will definitely be watching the Gilmore Girls reboot while on leave.

End date? Nope, just whenever he decides to come!

How are you feeling? Feel good although feel like a ticking time bomb. I was dilated to a 2.5 cm at last Friday's appt with a good cervix and OB seemed excited but nothing so far.

What TV show are you most looking forward to starting up again this fall? Walking Dead!

What TV show are you most looking forward to starting up again this fall? Big bang theory

elebishi thanks for doing this!

Is there an end date in sight? (c-section, induction, etc): Uh...

How are you feeling? Rants/raves, etc: Last night I cried because my husband went to get a drink with a friend. I want to get a drink with a friend. Actually, I just want to get a drink. No, I'll settle for being able to sit up at that hour of the day without being in pain. When he got home and asked what was wrong, I just said "I'm worn out. I'm just tired of hurting so much." It's been a solid four months of just pain. I'm ready for phase 2.

What TV show are you most looking forward to starting up again this fall? All the shows we watch seem to come on at random times of year. I love it. I've saved the newest season of Orange is the New Black for maternity leave. The Affair comes back this fall. And Teen Mom OG starts very soon.

Is there an end date in sight? (c-section, induction, etc) TOMORROW!! I've been at 4 cm for almost a week and the doctor thinks it would be a good idea.

How are you feeling? Rants/raves, etc I'm kind of over everthing to today. It has been one of those wake up and all the S&t is going wrong kind of days. DH decide that yesterday was the best day to quit smoking. So now he is in a pissy mood and being very short. I told him last night this was not a good time, but Aparently he would rather be an ass while I'm in he hospital than having quit anytime in the past 9 months or waiting untill I'm out of the hospital and out of pain. He is normally very considerate, but sometimes he gets his priorities all screwed up.

What TV show are you most looking forward to starting up again this fall? I haven't wast he's a new show since DD1 was born. It's just too hard to keep up. I really like Big Bang theory, but still have over 1/2 of last season to be watched on my DVR.

Nope.

I guess I can't complain, since I'm really not due for another 10 days, but I'm ready for this baby to be here. I just feel like she is totally out of room and it's painful. I am also so ready for the commentary to stop. Everyone has an opinion about when I'll go into labor, and it's annoying.

What TV show are you most looking forward to starting up again this fall?
Jane the Virgin - it's my silly guilty pleasure show.

[elebishi]

venyia, I'm with you on the James Spader love. He's quickly become one of my favorites.
countrycotton Good luck tomorrow!

Is there an end date in sight? (c-section, induction, etc) No, but today I was told my cervix has opened (fingertip!) and the baby dropped even farther down! I had strong, powerful, regular Braxton Hicks all last night (still non-painful) and lots of nausea so it is cool to hear that and know that things are progressing. I feel much more encouraged. I believe that if I get to 41 weeks we will talk about induction, because I have zero interest in going 42.

How are you feeling? Rants/raves, etc: feeling decent. Apparently I was asleep for most of the night last night when I was walking around, groaning, leaning on the wall, lying on the couch, because I don't remember ANY of that and husband had to tell me via text this morning! I feel super achey and gross and still nauseous/don't want food most nights, but nothing I can't handle. The heat wave is starting to *slightly* cool off so that's good too and contributing to me feeling better overall.

What TV show are you most looking forward to starting up again this fall? I only have Netflix/Amazon Prime etc, so I watch things in weird orders and save seasons, etc. I am actually more looking forward to re-watching some old faves while on Mat leave - definitely Breaking Bad and Mad Men are on the list!

38 weeks

Is there an end date in sight? (c-section, induction, etc)
Aug 26 for RCS.

How are you feeling? Rants/raves, etc
Starting to be a fine line between uncomfortable and in pain. Daily contractions that come and go and ease up after a shower. Rants: all my patients commenting on why I'm still working!

What TV show are you most looking forward to starting up again this fall?
Homeland and The Affair

Ha, I guess I was! I am a notorious sleep-walker/sleep-talker but it has been relatively calm for a few years, I guess the tendency is coming back!
